This isn’t a story about that. Instead, we get a great glimpse into the analog sketches from Nathan VanHook, a Nike Sportswear Senior Footwear Designer, who worked on a large swath of recent NSW models.

The coolest aspect to a couple of VanHook’s uploaded presentations? The often stamped stationary he used as a canvas, like Oregon’s Sunriver Resort, which helps serve up the development of the Nike Zoom Meriwether.

This is a nice display of work. I’m a huge fan of the footscape woven and have a pair of the original 360s and last year’s Bodega edition. Nice to see other designs that evolved from the same mind.

That grey pair in the third from last image (before the Meriweathers) have a forefoot toebox very similar to the old Mac Attacks from 1986. I had two pair as a kid and so wish Nike would do a reissue of those. Nathan? Tinker? Phil?
